Optiplex GX745 BIOS upgrade

Hello!

Downloaded and installed a new BIOS for my GX 745, file 0745-264.exe

Downloaded to desktop, ran it, it apparently succeded rebooting and "flashing" the BIOS (now shows BIOS Ver 2.6.4 on start up)

Now I try to delete the file "0745-264.exe from my dsktop and get an error message: "Cannot delete 0745-264.exe: It is being used by another person or program."

Tried re-booting, tried rebooting in "Safe Mode", still cannot delete the file...or move it...

 

Any thoughts??

BuilderBooks,

Delete all of your temporary internet files. Reboot. Then try to delete the file.

Thanks Chris, first go deleting just the internet temp files didn't cut it, used the disk clean utility and it found a lot more temp files...Plus, cleaned out about a gigs worth of useless stuff.

Problem solved
